Html5 video - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Everytime I visit a website with a youtube video in it, it requires flash to run the video.
Is there a way to use the html5 version of the video?
I don't like the YT desktop controls on my mobile device.. and it probably doesn't requires that much power as the flash version

Ice + chrome flash question

I hope this is not a dumb question but is there away to make flash videos in the chrome beta browser play in the video player? I'm wondering since flash will not come to the chrome browser. Flash video is still floating around the web on some sites so until html5 takes over everything, it is annoying switching to stock browser every time I want to watch a video. I have seen some videos, when you tap them it gives you a option to watch on the YouTube player. Is there away to make all videos give you the option to play on the YouTube player or some other video player?

No. It would need a complete rewrite by Google

Best movie player for Nexus 7?

What's the best movie player for playing 720p files? I've heard the stock player doesn't play all file formats. What do you use?
MX Player is always a great choice and is always one of the first things I download when I get a new device

I second the use of MX Player - been running it on both my phone and the Nexus 7 and it's great. I like that it was gesture controls as well as on-screen buttons.
The app called 'MX player' is the best player I found. It plays just about any type of video format you there.

I've had luck with BSPlayer
Should have posted this in the Apps subforum. That's why it is there.

I used MX player since I purchased the N7 and i found it almost perfect. For everything else, you can try the nightlies of XMBC. Probably once it will be polished will be a good alternative.

I did not know about this one, thanks for the tip, I'll give it a try!
So far I've been using MXplayer, however, and ideally, I wish I could solely use VLC as I'd prefer to rely on open source software.

Diceplayer works well for me using hardware decoding.
MXplayer stutters for me using hardware decoding. Software decoding works fine on MXplayer, but uses more battery than h/w decoding.
Nothing I have found gas played 1080p video with DTS audio add well add bsplayer. This is very important to me add I rather not have top convert or download different versions for my mobile device

No one here uses "Super Video, Floating and Popup"? This and Mobo player have been ole faithfuls for me. For one Super Video has gestures, (turn volume up and down while watching movie), Also after one video ends, it automatically plays another. (Works very well when watching saved music videos, and don't want to have to click on another video after the last one ended.) It also has minimizes to a small floating video so you can see your home screen in the background while you continue to watch movies/videos.
If MXplayer does this also, i might need to give it a try.
The stock gallery app is easily the best for playing videos it supports.
I don't think other players support the LPcore and stuff, and they use waaay too much processing power. I have tried 3rd party ones but they all use more than one core at nearly full freq most of the time. This is why I'm using stock
Feel free to prove me wrong though

Force HTML5 on AOSP Browser?

I'm wondering if it is possible to use only html5 on the AOSP browser. I don't like that the flash on it now plays videos more pixelated than normal.If i go and view the same flash video with an only html5/non-flash browser, like chrome, it plays much more clearly. Alternatively I would like to have it switch to the YouTube app like chrome does when you click on a youtube video.
Anyone? Is it just not possible or is there somewhere else on the forum I should ask where someone might know?
I would also like to see this implemented into the browser I wish we had a dev who could help I am going to ask about

Try TubeMate. Here's their official website: tubemate.net
or maybe video tube downloader
Gesendet von meinem Nexus 4 mit Tapatalk 4
tube mate forced me to quite the browser i am in, copy paste the link into the program and then it will download that video.
tube downloader has a browser in the program it self. so i just go to any site i want, and as soon as the video starts playing, i get a "save" icon that with just one click, it will save automatically.
ive used tubmate on all my devices.. never had issue with it

Youtube v5.7 NO HD FOR US????

The new version of youtube app has just been released providing the option to custom choose the resolution of the video. However, the only options for our phone are 140p 240p 360p. Is anybody aware of a way to enable hd video to our measly but reliable phone?
Thus far AFAIK, the only way to watch YouTube videos in HD is via third party apps such as Viral Popup Player and OGYouTube.

Are you people running Stock ROM from samsung?
I am running the latest nightly version of OMNI rom for galaxy s2 and all the Youtube videos are played at only 360p maximum. Is this rom lacks any youtube video hardware acceleration issue? or its an limitation with youtube.
Thanks,
Sivabalan K
the s2 doesn't have a 720p screen so hd videos are usless on this small screen

I'm on NeatROM which is essentially a stock ROM and the quality only goes up to 360p on the official YouTube app. You can watch YouTube videos in 720p but only via third party apps.

Get Xposed and download "app settings" then open it and scroll down to YouTube and change the DPI to 200 and change the DP to 800×1280 I'm sure it will work. Hope I helped
